Lorette Nobécourt is a living French writer (she was born in 1968). In her work takes place a quest of the "Word", the holy name she gives to literature. A great feeling of spirituality comes out from her texts. From 1999 to 2012 she wrote three texts about three different pictural works : La Raie by Chardin (french painter), L’Ordre du monde by Sujata Bajaj (indian artist) and L’Usage des jours by Guillaume Bardet (french designer). Trough her texts appears her literary and spiritual evolution. Literature proved to be a spiritual ritual, like a memento mori, but also an real prayer, an hymn in praise of the « living life ».

The theme of vanity occupies a prime place in Claude Simon ’s Tramw ay. In this text, he has adopted a new conception of vanity. Certainly, the author has always evoked themes intimately associated with vanity, such as the theme of death, the theme of melancholy, the theme of war, etc., but the “finitude” has always been for him a crucial phase for the return to the primordial and the origin for the beginning of a new cycle of life. In Tramw ay, the vanity of the world is presented in a tragic way. No reference to the primordiality or the cyclical return of things. The author insists on updating in the memory of the time of death. A large number of metaphors and symbols highlight this theme of death; it is as if the author throws to the reader a me-mento mori from someone on the point of experiencing this fatal experience which is irremediable and definitive. This gives the text a tragic and undeniable human dimension.

Le thème de la vanité occupe une place de choix dans L e Tramw ay de Claude Simon. Dans ce texte, il a adopté une nouvelle conception de la vanité. Certes, l ’au-teur a toujours évoqué des thèmes intimement associés à la vanité, tels que le thème de la mort, le thème de la mélancolie, le thème de la guerre, etc., mais la finitude a toujours été pour lui une phase cruciale pour le retour au primordial et à l ’origine, pour le commencement d ’un nouveau cycle de la vie. Dans L e Tramw ay, la vanité du monde est présentée d ’une manière tragique. Il n ’y a aucune référence à la pri-mordialité ni au retour cyclique des choses. L ’auteur insiste sur l ’actualisation, dans la mémoire, du temps de la mort. Un nombre important de métaphores et de sym-boles mettent en exergue ce thème de la mort ; c ’est comme si l ’auteur lançait au lec-teur un memento mori de la part de quelqu ’un sur le point de vivre cette expérience funeste qui est irrémédiable et définitive. C ’est ce qui confère au texte une dimension tragique et humaine indéniable.

The paper provides an analysis of eschatological themes in medieval debates between body and soul related to the Kingdom of Bohemia. The oldest poem (after 1320) emphasizes the particular judgment as the dominant eschatological horizon, probably under the influence of the Processus Sathanae. The old Czech translation of Visio Philiberti (ca. 1370) seems to avoid the description of physically conceived pain of a separated soul and stresses the absence of God as the worst punishment. The third old Czech debate (end of the 14th c.) underlines the loving bond between human composites, further accentuated in a contemporary Latin prose debate between body and soul by the archbishop of Prague John of Jenstein in his Liber dialogorum.
